Support ePAPR compliant phandle properties
Currently, the Linux kernel, libfdt and dtc, when using flattened device trees encode a node's phandle into a property named "linux,phandle". The ePAPR specification, however - aiming as it is to not be a Linux specific spec - requires that phandles be encoded in a property named simply "phandle". This patch adds support for this newer approach to dtc and libfdt. Specifically: - fdt_get_phandle() will now return the correct phandle if it is supplied in either of these properties - fdt_node_offset_by_phandle() will correctly find a node with the given phandle encoded in either property. - By default, when auto-generating phandles, dtc will encode it into both properties for maximum compatibility. A new -H option allows either only old-style or only new-style properties to be generated. - If phandle properties are explicitly supplied in the dts file, dtc will not auto-generate ones in the alternate format. - If both properties are supplied, dtc will check that they have the same value. - Some existing testcases are updated to use a mix of old and new-style phandles, partially testing the changes. - A new phandle_format test further tests the libfdt support, and the -H option.
